Tegan helps leaders and innovators connect more deeply with stakeholders across the blockchain ecosystem. She was listed on Forbes 30 under 30’s class of 2022 and The Information’s 30 Most Powerful People in Crypto List.

Tegan is also the former International Business Development Manager and Investor Relations Lead for an A16z and Sequoia backed blockchain company that created tools and protocols for users to obtain digital freedom and an open and accessible internet. She began her career on Wall Street in Investment Banking at BAML and, prior to discovering blockchain, worked in sales and trading at Barclays.

Tegan has been instrumental to the blockchain industry. She is making applications on blockchain technology possible at The Graph and, in launching Orchid, she helped to help get everyone equal access to the internet. She is now paving the way for DeFi, NFTs, DAOs and the broader web3 ecosystem at Edge & Node to ensure web3 becomes the future of the Internet.
